History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Some authors have cited legends from the tradition of Assair as part of investigations into the Sky Raiders; however, these legends have been proven to be connected with the arrival of Human colonists 2,750 years ago, long after the accepted period of Sky Raider activity.

The population of Assair decreased over time. By 1105, there are only around 2,000 people.
